My yorkie girl is just turned 11 weeks, and I've had her for 2 weeks...When she first came to me she was very nippy, but maybe not as bad as this; just regular teething puppy nips. But sometimes she would bite a bit too hard, especially feet she loves going after my hubby's feet! I trained her to stop and she stops now everytime I tell her. Basically when they bite too hard, or growl and snap at you, you make a loud yelp, or say something to catch their attention to get them to stop, I used the word 'Hey!' and then gave her tiny peices of hot dog when she stopped and from that she learned. She will still do it sometimes, but all I have to do is say 'Hey!' and she lets go. It didn't take long, but had to be very consistent and do it every time. |
